Hi, I’m James Updegraff — a strategic data analyst, veteran leader, and currently earning my Master of Information Technology at Virginia Tech.
I’m transitioning into the AI/data science space with a strong foundation in:
- 📊 Business intelligence (Power BI, SQL)
- 🧠 Decision support systems
- 📚 Python (currently completing Harvard CS50P)
- 🧪 Building machine learning models and MVP prototypes
🎯 Long-term goal: Launch a startup using an AI powered Automated Cybersecurity Hub
📂 Repositories here will include:
- Python-based ML projects
- Data cleaning + visualization workflows
- Concept MVPs for AI-enabled tools
Let’s connect if you’re working at the intersection of AI, defense engineering, data strategy, or data science — or if you're building meaningful solutions that elevate human decision-making.
